Quarl responds:

Ar, thanks for the review.

((VOTED 5))

It was a pretty nice song. I couldnt imagine why it would have dance in the name though since this was pretty much undacable to. Still overall it was a very nice song. Nice and long to. Could have looped better though so it seemed more endless.

Quarl responds:

lol.

Thanks for the review!

Not bad at all

I would take out the percussion in the very beginning. For starters, real percussionists don't play that fast and jumbled. Secondly, the orchestral instrument samples are not really that great (but I wouldn't nail you on that, because I understand that there's not much you can do about it).

Also, this piece sounded like it didn't really know what style it wanted to be. That is something very fundamental in a song's composition that you as the composer should consider.

I give this piece an "8" score because while I believe it could benefit from better planning and execution, it was still a very valiant effort and I can't deny that for what it is that you did a fairly good job.

Just think about those pointers.

Quarl responds:

I somewhat agree with you about the bongos at the beginning, as I now somewhat regret putting them in, however, there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. It's not that jumbled, and any percussionist who considers himself a "professional" can play a rhythm that fast. The only thing that was technically "wrong" with the bongo section was how digital it sounded. Real bongos usually don't sound as good at that speed. Also, they really didn’t fit in with the rest of the song, thus my regret.

Moving on, I’d like to say that this song wasn't supposed to sound like something else. Just because something doesn't sound like a denominative doesn't mean its lame. In fact, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the liberties of modern music if it weren’t for the crazy musicians on the fore front, revolutionizing music as we know it.

Another thing to keep in mind is that I'm playing around right now, seeing what I can do with the program I’m using. I only have three weeks of experience with digital/tonal music, so in case you didn't notice with my other submissions, all I’m doing right now is playing around with different sounds and genres until I can find something that feels right for me.

Still though, I can't knock you for trying to give me some pointers. In fact, I wish more people would leave reviews like yours. However, there's still quite a bit of "review" you left out. The 8 overall was generous, but you still could have been more helpful if you explained why you gave me a 6 for clarity and diversity.

Oh, and about "planning and execution," well you see I'm a drummer. I lay down the rhythm section before I even begin to play around with the melodies, so technically planning and execution are non existent when it comes to my songs. You hit the nail on the coffin there.

Thanks for the review dude!
